Episode 61: 18061 Rachmaninoff: Cello Sonata in G minor, Op.19

Classical Music Discoveries

Rachmaninoff’s Cello Sonata Op.19, one of the great landmarks of late Romantic music, has found its ideal interpreters in Yuja Wang and Gautier Capuçon. Their new recording of the work for Deutsche Grammophon projects a partnership of equals fully immersed in the music’s turbulent emotions and striking expressive contrasts. Released digitally on 19 November 2021, it will also form part of a full album from Wang, Capuçon, and clarinetist Andreas Ottensamer to follow next October, on which it will be coupled with Brahms’s Cello Sonata No. 1 and Clarinet Trio.
